In the context of the war in Ukraine and rising internal challenges, re-establishing effective communication between the government and society is increasingly vital. The adoption of a law restoring the autonomy of anti-corruption bodies is expected soon, but this represents just one step in a complex reform process.
Holding elections and renewing the government is continually difficult under current conditions. The authorities are less able to monopolize power, which threatens governance effectiveness. The European Union has made it clear that future financial support to Ukraine will depend on compliance with key reforms and criteria. At the same time, Ukrainian society needs to be actively involved in these reform processes.
New reform strategies must involve expert groups, business representatives, volunteers, and trusted public figures. It is essential not only to restart processes but to shape policies together with society, enhancing the government's legitimacy.
The idea of creating expert groups at ministries and actively involving the public in developing new policies is discussed. This approach could help maintain national unity during the prolonged war, despite the lack of opportunity to hold traditional elections.
To conclude, the resilience of Ukraine in difficult times depends on effective communication and joint definition of state strategy. Updated interaction between the government and society may form the basis for further reforms and Ukraine's progress toward the European Union.
